A compendium of gene expression data, enhanced by complete pro

Overview: Studies the printed book as an object and experimental medium.Considers the latest technological changes in digital publishing.Views American book culture as a testing ground for future forms and medi.This essay collection explores the cultural functions the printed book performs in the digital age. It examines how the use of and attitude toward the book form have changed in light of the digital transformation of American media culture. Situated at the crossroads of American studies, literary studies, book studies, and media studies, these essays show that a sustained focus on the me

Overview: Like many European Jews, Sam Iwry began his life in Poland, but at the age of ten fled with his family to Russia before World War I. At age 29, Iwry was forced to flee again - this time from the Soviets - and ended up in Shanghai, China, joining 20,000 Jewish refugees who were there. The story of the Diaspora caused by the Holocaust is well-known, but the Far Eastern dimension has come to light only very recently. Iwry is a magnificent storyteller who not only brings the harrowing details of flight and survival into vivid detail, but he is also an historian who deliberately places hi

Overview: Explains how social institutions are based on various particular sets of social relations.Examines key paradigms across the social sciences, such as neo-institutionalism, Parsons’ social system theoryThe book addresses the problem of institutionalised order in modern capitalist societies with highly developed division of labour. Via thorough critique and reconstruction of neo institutionalist theory, classical social theories, and critical ideology theory, .The Invisible Order. introduces the first relational theory of social institutions to explain in detail how individuals end up e

Overview: In einer Situation der Turbulenz und des Übergangs läuft jede Theorie das Risiko, die Wirklichkeit, die sie interpretieren sollte, zu "verfolgen" ohne sie jemals einzuholen. Eine Theorie der Unternehmung, die lediglich in eine kontingente Wirklichkeit eingetaucht ist, hat jedoch der Wissenschaft und Praxis wenig zu bieten. Sie ist einerseits eine Modeströmung, andererseits eine Übersicht über eine beobachtbare Vielfalt, die gegenüber einer "empirischen Nacherzählung" keinen Wert schafft. Mit zunehmender Beschleunigung der Veränderung nimmt die Notwendigkeit zu, über einen stabilen Or

Overview: The behavior of porous media play an important role in geology, hydrology, soil mechanics, industrial processes, and in the new evolving field of granular matter.The current state of the theory of porPorous media theories play an important role in many branches of engineering, including material science, the petroleum industry, chemical engineering, and soil mechanics, as well as biomechanics. This book offers a consistent treatment of the material-independent fundamental equations of the theory of porous media, formulates constitutive equations for frictional materials in the elasti

Overview: The time is ripe for a new international organization, a Global Union based upon a limited sharing of sovereignty. This book examines the successes and failures of the European Union as a sovereignty-sharing organization, and suggests that this unique institution has a critical role to play in the development of a more effective world order.978-1-349-31181-1978-0-230-27495-2

Overview: Eingeführtes Lehrbuch zur modernen Kernphysik.Viele Übungsaufgaben und Lösungen, die beim Lernen helfen.Ideal als Begleittext zu einführenden Vorlesungen an Hochschulen.Includes supplementary material.Die Grundidee dieses einführenden Lehrbuchs besteht darin, eine einheitliche Darstellung von Kern- und Teilchenphysik aus experimenteller Sicht zu geben. Die Reduktion der komplex aufgebauten Materie der Atomkerne und Nukleonen auf wenige Grundbausteine und Wechselwirkungen ist die erste Botschaft dieses Buchs. Der zweite Teil, der den Aufbau von Nukleonen und Kernen aus diesen Grundbau

Overview: Includes supplementary material: In Targets for Cancer Chemotherapy: Transcription Factors and Other Nuclear Proteins, a panel of leading basic researchers, pharmaceutical scientists, and clinical oncologists explain in detail the therapeutically-relevant protein targets that contribute to cancer pathology and spell out their implications for cancer drug discovery and clinical application. The authors identify and illuminate selected transcription factor oncoproteins and tumor suppressors, together with nuclear proteins that are central to the phenotype of the tumor cell involved in

Overview: A partially ordered group is an algebraic object having the structure of a group and the structure of a partially ordered set which are connected in some natural way. These connections were established in the period between the end of 19th and beginning of 20th century. It was realized that ordered algebraic systems occur in various branches of mathemat­ ics bound up with its fundamentals. For example, the classification of infinitesimals resulted in discovery of non-archimedean ordered al­ gebraic systems, the formalization of the notion of real number led to the definition of order

Overview: In October 1986 the German Minister for Research and Technology (Bundesminister fUr Forschung und Technologie), Dr. H. Riesenhuber, officially announced that the super-deep borehole of the Continental Deep Drilling Program of the Federal Republic of Germany (KTB) would be drilled in the Oberpfalz area of Northern Bavaria. The site selection was based on a recommendation from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) made after an evaluation by the Project Management of the technical and financial risks involved. This decision was preceded by a conference held from September 19 to 21,

Overview: Covers a gap in the literature on just war theory and related issues.Shows why it is morally wrong to design new weapons systems.Appeals to both philosophers, members of other academic disciplines, an. .This book addresses the morality of engaging in weapons research, a topic that has been neglected but which is extremely important. It is argued that this activity is both morally wrong and morally unjustifiable, and this implies that moral persons should not engage in it. The argument is not based on any pacifist assumptions: it is not assumed that neither individuals nor states shou
